Yeah, a few haters here. ;)

I mean to boo a champion in such close proximity. Must have been Rossi fanboys I guess.

After Iannone beaned it, the race became a total snoozer. make the beast with two backsing Iannone.

Comes a time
When the blind man takes your hand
Says don't you see
Gotta' make it somehow

Bad luck for the Maniac, I think he lost it on the white paint/rumble strip, poor guy but he was pushing it to the limit, the way those dukes smoked JLo on the first straight was nothing short of amazing but I wonder why they couldn't do the same every lap. Fuel consumption/preservation perhaps?

[bang] I really wanted to see Rossi on that podium but I'm glad he finished upright and .1 sec off the from 3rd
whats moepery? moepery is when you expose yourself to a blind person.

Need to re-watch.

I think everyone's a bit unsure about tires for race distance, and what they can do about it with the electronics.

Seemed to be several threats of action a couple times, that then fizzled.

I hadn't noticed before the two Ducs have different wing setups. (?) Or were they both different from the beginning?

I think it's some sort of lottery, what each rider has to try with the wings.
rossi seems to do well in the no-wings lottery.
[laugh]

They still don't seem to have a clear cut answer on whether it works or not.

The Ducs may have been having rear wheel spin issues, so they couldn't get the drive off of the final corner?
Dunno.
They certainly caned JLo those first two laps.

This ^^ Once they settled into a groove I think they decided that the first race after changing electronics and tires would not be the best time to be hyper aggressive. Even the bull in the china shop (MM) seemed to be more subdued.

Too bad the Maniac didn't get that memo...

Snoozefest! 

I think Iannone was the only one that could have gotten into J-Lo head.

That was awesome watching the Ducs blow the doors off of the Yamaha. 

Next race!

I thought the late battle between MM and Dovi was some good shit.

Even though there wasn't a bunch of passing, the top 4 were close enough to keep me entertained.

I would have preferred a shit ton of passing for sure, but this wasn't too bad in my book.
